Obama Cairo Speech. Perfect.

"He will be hailed as a man of peace; he will be accomplished as a great orator; he will win hearts and minds and many will follow him; but he will be tha anti-Christ"

So, when do we receive his mark? :-)

Is Obama the anti-Christ?? I don't think he is as good as lot of people think. I don't have any good points to support this but the fact that he is a president in the US means a lot to me.

Life Without The Internet

Can you imagine it? I can't. I would struggle to get through the day without my fix. In that sense it's not much different from any other addiction. If you can't have it then you begin to exhibit withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms could include:

Feeling of purposelessness in life.

A general volatility in temper.

Starting up your web browser just to watch the error message and to gaze wistfully at the now-lifeless status bar.

Attempting to reconstruct the google search page in your head and fondly reminiscing about the good old days.

Frantically loading any saved web pages you may have in your cache to gaze lovingly at them. But it's like entering a Ferrari showroom, you can feel and get in the car, but you can't drive it anywhere. The showroom manager won't even let you take it on a test drive because he can sense you would never be able to afford it.

Just to clarify, the net is working fine now. But there have been times in my life, when my happiness has been cruelly crushed, when all hope is driven out of me to be replaced by a bleak vacuum of nothingness. There have been times when the internet stopped working.

Ridiculous way to monitor weight

What can be more ridiculous than a weight monitor chair that beeps, vibrates, cracks, moans or otherwise improvises its frustration with every new bite that adds a few extra unwelcome grams to your total weight. Basically, you sit on the chair to eat your lunch/dinner. The chair measures your weight before you indulge your appetite. 90 kilos. Right! Why don't you have a few more bites? 90.5 kilos, Silence..91, beep..91.2, small vibrations..91.5, cracking sounds, 92..loud moans..93, all modes of frustration-expression set loose..100, chair breaks down..there can be many ridiculous ways to lose weight, but few funnier than the one of which I speak. I rest my case..

Compose music moving your body

Wouldn't it be cool to compose music just by moving your body? As technology advances, just about anyone can become composers at low cost. Leads to more creativity, more songs, more music. I bet the Internet will provide free tutorials. There'll be classes but no exams. There'll be courses but no degrees, qualifications etc

Just a thought..

I always have these great ideas to freak people out and amuse myself, but I don't ever actually have the balls to do it.

So anyways...this morning I was doing my weekend jog w/ my friend (jogged 18 min then 5.5, woohoo!) and we had several cars of guys slow down to yell things out the window at us. This is not uncommon, but its just so weird. Because seriously? This is when you want to yell out at a girl? When she's sweaty and gross and up at the ass crack of dawn (or like, 10am, whatevs) to jog? But you know they aren't really hitting on you. They're bored and trying to be funny.

So that got me thinking... what if we could find a way to just freak them out. For example... car slows down at stop sign and yells out typical "shake it baby WOO" and instead of ignoring them or giving them dirty looks, we smile? And make a bee-line for the car and be like "omg you guys are SOOOO cute, so you want our numbers? omg we should TOTALLY go out tonight" etc etc. It might just get them to stop yelling out to random girls. it'd be a public service really. Just a thought.

Sell/Send out-dated capital to third world countries

Obviously old computers, typewriters, telephones, calculators, etc are no longer high quality to the industrialized world as technology continually advances. However, these out-dated pieces of capital could increase productivity in alarming rates to those who could employee them in the third world. This minor act of philanthropy (or business venture) would do much more for the well being of people than typical charity.
